Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 62

Fabian entered after Natasha left.

When he saw the box on the floor, he asked in surprise, “Mr. Hamilton, did you really take the money?”

Kenneth gazed at Fabian without saying a word.

“No, that's not the proper way to win a girl's affection. Mr. Hamilton, you are giving off an assertive impression if you take the money. Don’t you think so?” Fabian said while walking up to Kenneth.

“Is that so?” Kenneth seemed distracted.

“Of course! During times like this, you must insist on not taking the money!” Fabian added.

Kenneth remained silent.

“However, I have to say that your ex-wife is quite feisty. She returned the money to you right after you gifted the car to her. I'm quite amused by her domineering personality,” Fabian muttered cheerfully.

Kenneth ignored him.

Fabian was suddenly intrigued. He looked at Kenneth and asked secretively, “Mr. Hamilton, may I take a look at the money worth over ten million? I've never seen so much cash before.”

Kenneth raised his brows lazily after hearing Fabian's request. “You don't have to look at it. Feel free to take it with you. I'll gift you the money.”

“What?” Fabian was momentarily dazed as he stared at Kenneth. “No, Mr. Hamilton. I just want to take a look...”

“I'm serious. Take it,” Kenneth uttered solemnly.

Taking in his serious demeanor, Fabian laughed diffidently. “Mr. Hamilton, don't be like this. I'm beginning to feel a little scared. I didn't do anything to deserve that reward, so how can I accept the money?”

“Do you want it or not?” Kenneth asked.

“S-Should I take the money?” Fabian raised the question while staring at the box.

“Take the box and get out of here,” Kenneth instructed.

In that case, it'll be difficult for me to not comply with Mr. Hamilton's wish.

Fabian smiled when he noticed Kenneth was not joking. “In that case, Mr. Hamilton, I'll take the money. Don't worry. I'll do everything you ask of me in the future and pledge my allegiance to you.” With that, he lifted the box and was about to leave.

However, just as he held up the box, Fabian realized the box was extremely light.

He gazed at Kenneth. “Mr. Hamilton, this...”

Kenneth suppressed his urge to laugh. Feigning ignorance, he asked, “What's the matter?”

Fabian did not know if he should tell the truth. He opened the box in front of Kenneth and revealed the empty content.

“Mr. Hamilton, this... I think your ex-wife scammed you,” Fabian said.

Still, Kenneth remained unfazed.

“You're not mad, Mr. Hamilton?” “Why should I be mad?” Kenneth asked.

Fabian was stunned. Clarity washed over at that instant. He realized Natasha did not scam Kenneth. Instead, Kenneth had tricked him.

He felt extremely embarrassed.

“Mr. Hamilton, you're making fun of me again...” Fabian grumbled pitifully. His hopes of possessing over ten million had shattered and dissipated into nothingness in the blink of an eye.

“When did I make fun of you?” Kenneth was not about to admit his action.

“You...” Fabian wanted to speak further, but on second thought, he recalled Kenneth had indeed not mentioned anything.

“Ahh! My ten million,” Fabian wailed before turning around and left.

Outside the building, Natasha had just walked up to the car parked at the entrance when Thea got out of another vehicle.

“Natasha?” Thea said while looking at Natasha. Then, she noticed the car that had appeared on the news. Thea frowned in displeasure.

Natasha turned around. When she saw Thea, she grinned and greeted the latter, “Ms. Jarman.”

“Why are you here?” Thea asked. Despite the smile on her face, it was apparent that she was putting up a pretense.

Natasha answered truthfully, “I'm here to return the car.”

Thea glanced at the car beside and asked, “Did Kenneth really gift you this car?”

“Theoretically, yes,” Natasha replied.

The smile on Thea’s face almost wavered.

“If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now.” Natasha did not bother to explain further. She was not Kenneth's girlfriend, after all.
